A Look at the Broadway Production of Newsies That Your 10-Year-Old Self Has Been Dying For
jezebel.com: Look, I love Newsies as much as anybody. Seriously, there was a time of my life when I had a Newsies outfit and, dear God, spent hours a day reading Newsies fan fiction (yes, it exists and, yes, shit gets real weird). I get why people are worried about the Broadway production — it's a classic movie that many of us hold very dearly in our hearts and no one wants to see something so steeped in nostalgia ruined or have its integrity damaged, but I have to say something: Newsies didn't have any integrity to begin with.
